After spending one week on admission in the hospital, I returned home today to continue my treatment. Before I got admitted, I was “treating” the fever at home thinking it was malaria. Guys… no be every fever be malaria o.

So I flew into Ibadan from Abuja and felt feverish. I thought it was malaria so I ordered for my favorite malaria meds. After completing the dosage, I didn’t feel better. I felt very terrible. The fever was crazy and my temperature was skyrocketing.
I left Ibadan for Lagos to go Evercare, Lekki. After tests and examinations, I was told I’ve got pneumonia. The doctors said bacteria has attacked my lungs. That is what pneumonia was about anyway. This is different from what I grew up hearing about pneumonia. 😀
When I spoke to my mum, she said t was because of cold water and AC 😀. Dear mama, pneumonia has nothing to do with cold water and AC. Funny thing is almost everyone I told it was pneumonia, they thought it was about cold and AC. 70s and 80s kids have been scammed.
So I got admitted. Stayed there for a week. Daily tests to monitor my progress and response to treatment. I didn’t get better in the first few days but after that I got better. Now, I have been discharged and all my treatments have been converted to oral.
I can’t wait to get fully fit and back to work. The lesson for me here is that testing is key when one feels unwell. Only God knows what could have happened if I stuck with treating malaria.
